# Magma V2.10-17 Patch Notes

## Groups

- A bug in computing `Classes` of a matrix group (reported by Eamonn O’Brien) has been fixed. The bug caused a segmentation fault when there were many classes with identical order/length.
- A number of bugs in the code for computing automorphism groups and testing isomorphism of finite permutation and matrix groups have been fixed.
- A bug in membership testing for subgroups of a `GrpPC` has been fixed. The bug was reported as a problem with `IsNormal` by Eamonn O’Brien and Mike Newman when working with a large 2-group.
- It is now possible to form sequences and sets of elements of Lie groups.

## Language

- A bug which allowed strings to be indexed by non-integers has been fixed.

## Rings and Fields

- A bug in the `MaximalOrder` computation over base fields of degree 32 has been fixed.
- Divisor creation in function fields failed sometimes if the orders were created in special ways.
- `SplittingField` for polynomials with rational coefficient is now supported.
- A bug in p-adic powering with very large exponents has been fixed.
- Several bugs in `XGCD` over p-adic fields have been fixed.
- Several minor problems in the ECPP code for proving primality of integers has been fixed. When checking a large number of primes, a segmentation fault could have occurred.
- A bug in the factorization of polynomials over positive-characteristic function fields has been fixed.
- A problem in the intersection of fractional ideals of number fields causing Magma to die has been fixed.

## Young Tableau

- A memory bug in `InverseRSKCorrespondence` causing a segmentation fault has been fixed.
- A function `Positions` which searches the cells of a tableau for a given entry has been provided.
- The syntax `M&lt;[x]&gt; := ...` has been installed for ordered monoids and plactic monoids
- Some new coercions have been provided. These include coercions between the integers and the ordered monoid of positive integers
